Methods - Bias Adjustment

At present, GHCN-Daily does not contain adjustments for biases resulting from historical changes in instrumentation and observing practices. However, there is ongoing work at NCDC to develop adjustments that can be applied to daily maximum and minimum temperatures, and a GHCN-daily-derived product containing adjusted daily temperatures may become available in the future.
